ADZPCTKO 2008
The 10th Annual Day Zero Pacific Crest Trail Kick Off (ADZPCTKO)
will be held on April 25th thru 27th at Lake Morena County
Park--just 20.1 miles by trail, about 7 miles by crow, from the
U.S.-Mexico border. At the kickoff you'll encounter good people,
great presentations, fair food, a few quality vendors, and several
key non-profit organizations. Past thru-hikers, ancient thru-hikers,
trail angels, and supporters gather to give those aspiring to
thru-hike or take on a significant PCT section a bit of education,
some great inspiration, and the butterfly-killing experiences of
those who have gone before. Come join us in sending off another
year's group and enjoy the fantastic camaraderie, energy, and
passion that we, the trail community, all share.
REGISTRATION IS CLOSED. The campground
is full. If you fill out the registration form, we'll put you on a
waiting list and let you know if there's been a cancellation. But
please don't show up unless you hear from us; there will not be a
place for you to stay.
Lists
of everyone who has registered are
now online.
Campsite assignments are now complete,
and the campground map has been
updated. Check the online
registration lists to find out who you're stuck with. Watch your
e-mail for a message with lots of details. |
